I'm kinda stealing this one from something I saw on Reddit. Everyday we learn new things... whether it's new information we go searching for, random information we read online, or from some other source. If you have learned something new today, post it here and spread the knowledge. I'll start...
TIL, that cheese is basically coagulated cow pus. Ewww...

Cheese is made from milk (cow, goat, sheep, etc.). Milk is not 'cow pus'.

Here is a very good piece of advice that I gave to a very dear friend of mine that has had a rather tumultuous past and had some very bad things happen that caused my friend quite a bit of grief and strife before things got straightened out:
I learned to think like this many, many years ago and have come up with my own optimistic outlook on life and allows me to deal with whatever life happens to throw my way. I try not to judge anyone because I am not perfect either and will be the first to tell you that. It matters not, in most instances, what a persons past is. I look at them in the here and now and base my observation(s) and opinion(s) on what they present to me in the present tense.

I learned fried chicken was born in Scotland and the African captives in America perfected it by giving it flavor. I thought that was really interesting. I always thought it originated in the US south, but, the Scottish were the first to deep fry chicken, the Scottish immigrants continued this tradition when they came to America.

A lesson I learned many decades ago as a small child. Do not believe your eldest sister when she tells you if you stick a knife in the electric socket you'll get M&M's.

Cheese is made from milk (cow, goat, sheep, etc.). Milk is not 'cow pus'. "If you have to wonder what the pus content of something is, should you really be eating it? Cheese—like all dairy products—contains pus from cows whose udders get bacterial infections when the cows are treated like milk machines by the dairy industry." www.peta.org/blog/cheese-make-heave"Somatic cell counts greater than a million per teaspoon are abnormal and “almost always” caused by mastitis. When a cow is infected, greater than 90% of the somatic cells in her milk are neutrophils, the inflammatory immune cells that form pus. The average somatic cell count in U.S. milk per spoonful is 1,120,000." nutritionfacts.org/2011/09/08/how-much-pus-is-there-in-milk-I have more info, but I'm away from home at the moment... so, this is the best I can do right now.

If all that is true, it's a good argument to never drink raw milk or use it in cheese, etc. Stick to pasteurized!
